"The lower officials meet Lu Shenzheng!" At this time, Li Zhang also saluted the middle-aged man with a long beard, this middle-aged man was the governor of the political affairs Lu Yijian, that is, one of Wang Zeng's deputies, although Li Zhang and he were not familiar with him, they had also met a few times.

Li ...... Lieutenant Lee? What's going on? At this time, the middle-aged man surnamed Liu, who was standing next to Lu Yijian, had not yet reacted, and he was also confused at the moment, he just wanted to find a family affair for his daughter, so he sent someone to Donghuamen to catch his son-in-law, but now it seems that the son-in-law he captured is not an ordinary person?

"It seems that Brother Zhou, your servant has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he actually captured Li Duwei." Lu Yijian laughed again at this time, and then officially introduced to him, "This is Li Zhang, Li Duwei, who is now in charge of the firearms superintendent, as I mentioned to you before, Brother Zhou. ”

Hearing Lu Yijian's introduction, the middle-aged man surnamed Zhou came to his senses, for Li Zhang, a young talent, and the person closest to the Queen Mother and His Majesty, he naturally heard of it, and even wanted to get acquainted with him, but he never had the opportunity, but he didn't expect to meet in this situation today.

"Li Duwei, this is my friend Liu Jue, who used to teach in Guozijian before, and is now recuperating at home due to illness." Lu Yijian also introduced Liu Jue to Li Zhang at this time, only to see that the other party also showed a rather embarrassed smile to Li Zhang at this time, after all, the meeting between the two sides was too unusual.

"It turned out to be Master Liu, and Li Zhang was polite!" Li Zhang was quite generous at this time, and immediately bowed to Liu Jue, the other party used to teach in the Guozijian, so he was called "Master" to show respect.

Liu Jue saw that Li Zhang behaved so calmly, and he didn't mean to blame himself, which made him feel ashamed, and then he also returned the courtesy: "This time I am more offended, and I hope Li Duwei will not be surprised!" ”

"Brother Liu, although Duwei Li is young, he is a measured person, and he will definitely not be angry because of this, but I am very curious, how did you get caught by the servants of Brother Liu's family, Duwei Li?" When Lu Yijian said the end, he also showed a very curious expression, after all, Liu's family was to catch the people under the list, why was Li Zhang, the current official, also arrested?

"It's a coincidence that I have a friend who participated in the imperial examination this year, and I accompanied him to see the release list, but that friend was robbed of the high school jinshi for the first time, I may be too young, and I was also treated as a lifter, and was finally arrested by Liu Fuzi's family." Li Zhang also spread his hands out when he said this, showing a helpless expression.

"Hahaha~, that can only show that Li Duwei and Brother Liu are fated, I heard that Li Duwei is not married yet, it just so happens that Brother Liu has a daughter who is 27 years old, and Li Duwei is the same age." Lu Yijian suddenly laughed when he heard this, and then he actually acted as a matchmaker for Li Zhang, and Liu Jue next to him also showed an excited expression, Li Zhang's identity is not comparable to those new Jinshi, if they can marry their daughter to him, then their Liu family will not have to worry about having no backer in the future.

"I'm afraid this will disappoint Lu Shenzheng, I just got engaged to the young daughter of Taiwei Liu's family some time ago, just because she wants to keep filial piety for Taiwei, so it has not been made public for the time being." Li Zhang replied with a smile at the moment, at this time he was a little glad that he was already engaged, otherwise these people would have to be a matchmaker for themselves as long as they saw him, Lu Yijian was like this, Wang Zeng was also like this, he used to think of an excuse to refuse, but now he finally has a shield.

Hearing that Li Zhang was already engaged, Liu Jue immediately showed a disappointed expression, but Lu Yijian's expression at this time became a little subtle: "Uncle Liu's daughter, the Queen Mother is really a good plan!" ”

As soon as Lu Yijian's words came out, Li Zhang immediately noticed that there was something in his words, and looked at the other party in surprise at the moment, but Lu Yijian smiled at Li Zhang at this time and did not say any more, which made Li Zhang also a little disappointed.

"Captain Li, although this matter is a misunderstanding, it is also a mistake, it is just now close to noon, and I have already asked people to prepare a banquet, even if it is to make amends for Captain Li?" At this time, Liu Jue suddenly opened his mouth and invited, although the news of Li Zhang's engagement made him very disappointed, but it was not bad to be able to make friends with Li Zhang, at least he could be familiar with each other, so that he could deal with him in the future.

Li Zhang was a little hesitant when he heard Liu Jue's words, but at this time, Lu Yijian also spoke: "Captain Li, meeting is fate, and this official has always appreciated your talent, since we met Brother Liu today, it is better to sit down and have a few drinks." ”

In the face of Lu Yijian's invitation, Li Zhang was not easy to refuse, and finally nodded and agreed, seeing that Li Zhang agreed, Liu Jue also immediately happily ordered his subordinates to send the prepared wine and food, which was originally prepared for his future son-in-law, just used to apologize to Li Zhang.

Li Zhang knows that this Lu Yijian in front of him is not simple, and his background is even more prominent, his grandfather is Lu Mengzheng, the prime minister of the Taizong and Zhenzong periods, and his father also worships Dali Temple.

However, the most impressive thing about Li Zhang in Lu Yijian's life is that in the original history, when Zhao Zhen's biological mother, that is, Li Zhang's aunt Li died, it was Lu Yijian who took the initiative to come forward and let Li be buried in the clothes of the queen mother, and finally Zhao Zhen learned of his life experience, suspected the cause of his mother's death, so he opened the coffin for an autopsy and found that his mother's body was well preserved, and it also got the specifications that the queen mother deserved, which calmed down a lot of his anger.

Of course, many people say that the reason why Lu Yijian insisted on letting the Li family be buried in the clothes of the queen mother was actually selfish, in order to pay tribute to Zhao Zhen in the future, but for Li Zhang, no matter what Lu Yijian's motives in history were, he was a respectable person, after all, Liu E was powerful at that time, and he had to take great risks in doing so.

After the banquet was arranged, Liu Jue also toasted Li Zhang again and again, but Li Zhang's amount of wine was not good, so after drinking three cups, he proposed to replace the wine with tea, but Liu Jue was a good drinker, even if Li Zhang drank tea, he still kept saluting, and finally he was a little drunk first.

Lu Yijian doesn't seem to drink much, but he is very talkative, whether it is astronomy and geography or rumors and gossip on the streets, he can chat a few words, Li Zhang is also a good talker, so the two chatted very speculatively.

This banquet lasted for nearly two hours, and finally ended with Liu Jue, who was drunk, being helped down, and Li Zhang also got up to say goodbye at this time, but at this time Lu Yijian smiled and said: "It just so happens that I am also leaving, so it is better to go with Li Duwei!" ”

In the face of Lu Yijian's initiative, Li Zhang naturally couldn't refuse, so the two went out of Liu's Mansion together, Liu's Mansion was also in the west of the city, and it was not too far from Li Zhang's home, just a few blocks apart, so the two didn't get into the carriage, but chatted while walking, at this time, it was getting late, and the street seemed a little deserted.

"Li Duwei, I heard that you and Wang Xiang have known each other for a long time, and he is full of praise for you?" Lu Yijian suddenly mentioned Wang Zeng at this time, and asked with a smile.

"I met Wang Xiang by accident, that was when the emperor died, Lei Yungong was investigated for corruption and bribery, and Wang Xiang happened to pass by the Huangzhuang where I was, so I just chatted a few words." Li Zhang didn't hide it, and told him about his acquaintance with Wang Zeng at the moment.

"I see, speaking of the imperial mausoleum, except for the time when the emperor was buried, I went there once, and then I never went again, I heard that in addition to the forbidden army guarding, only some concubines left by the emperor guarded the mausoleum for him." Lu Yijian suddenly changed his words at this time, and he mentioned the concubine who guarded the tomb for Zhao Heng without thinking, which made Li Zhang can't help but look at him carefully, but the other party's expression was not unusual.

"That's true, I only went to the imperial tomb a few times when I accompanied His Majesty to worship the emperor, after all, it was the sleeping place of the emperor, and it should not be disturbed by too many people." Li Zhang spoke again at this time.

"Yes, the emperor is the Son of Heaven and a true dragon, but the imperial tomb is the place where the real dragon rests, and there is a dragon qi to bless him, so except for His Majesty, who is also a true dragon, it is better for others to go to the imperial tomb!" Lu Yijian spoke again at this time, but when he said the end, he glanced at Li Zhang meaningfully, and the 'others' in his words obviously referred to Li Zhang.

Li Zhang also frowned when he heard this, and then turned his head Zhao Zhen looked at Lu Yijian's eyes and said, "Why did Lu participate in politics say this?" ”

"Haha~, why did Li Duwei ask knowingly, although you made a lot of contributions to Gyeongju, you also took a lot of risks, if you didn't go to a place where you shouldn't go, where would the Queen Mother be willing to let you take risks?" Lu Yijian laughed again at this time, and simply made his words clear.

Li Zhang couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring when he heard this, staring at Lu Yijian like a torch at the moment, the reason why he went to Gyeongju was ostensibly to test the power of the musket on the battlefield, but in fact, the real reason was that Li Zhang took Zhao Zhen to visit his biological mother, that is, his aunt, although Liu E thought that Li Zhang did not mean it, but he was still very angry, so he drove him to Gyeongju, which was regarded as a beating on Li Zhang.

Originally, Li Zhang thought that except for himself and Liu E, no one else would know the secret of his trip to Gyeongju, and even Zhao Zhen simply thought that Li Zhang was going to test the musket, but he didn't expect Lu Yijian to notice this, and from the fact that he supported Concubine Li Chen in history, it can be seen that Lu Yijian must know Zhao Zhen's true life experience, but it's not strange to think about it, after all, his grandfather was once the prime minister of Zhao Heng's period, and the family was an official for three generations, and it was normal to know these secrets in the palace.

Li Zhang stared at Lu Yijian for a while, but he still couldn't guess his details, so he deliberately pretended to be confused and asked, "Lu Shenzheng, what do you mean by this?" ”
